Great!! Obama''s Aide told a reporter yesterday that Obama doesn''t really those white working class Voters in OH and PA at all to win the General Election.

Wow, I just could not believe what I heard on TV. They just insulted more than half of the faithfuls who helped built this Party from the beginning.

Change and Hope???? What Change and Hope???

This guy has completely polarizing the Democratic Party. What an insult!

Why is Hillary smiling??? She won PA you say??? Nooooooo!! It''s because now she won''t be stuck with her huge campaign debt because her disillusioned supporters don''t realize that she cannot win, and they open up their wallets and waste their money.
Hillary has 109 million in the back pockets of her pant suits but is asking us to fund her debt ridden campaign, which is ultimately going to fail anyway because there is no way that superdelegates will overturn the will of the people, split the party and destroy a democratic victory in November.

Hillary shows her lack of international political experience. She makes a threat that she would make massive retaliation against Iran if it attacked Israel; but can someone gently remind her that Israel does not need USA military might to help it, because Israel is a country with massive nuclear arsenal and weapons of mass destruction.

I mean come on, who thinks that: Israel, a country that is armed to the teeth with the most advanced American weapons that we don%u2019t sell to anyone else, a country that has one of the worlds best air forces, a country that has had nuclear weapons since the 1960%u2019s needs our military assistance against someone like Iran !!!!!

Hillary Clinton . Ready To Cry On Day One

Hillary cried on TV when things were tough in NH during the campaign.
What is she going to do if there is a crisis at 3am, start blubbering like a baby. The last thing the U.S. needs is Hillary in the oval office getting emotional and showing weakness. If we are going to have a woman President we need our own iron lady will who will never show emotion under pressure.

America deserves a strong leader, not a cry baby !

Everyone is starting to notice Clinton tactics!

WASHINGTON - %u201CScurrilous%u201D and %u201Cdisingenuous%u201D were among the words a top Democrat in the U.S. House of Representatives used on Thursday to describe Hillary Clinton%u2019s campaign tactics in her bid to defeat Barack Obama for their party%u2019s presidential nomination.

House Democratic Whip James Clyburn, of South Carolina and the highest ranking black in Congress, also said he has heard speculation that Clinton is staying in the race only to try to derail Obama and pave the way for her to make another White House run in 2012.

I heard something, the first time yesterday (in South Carolina), and I heard it on the (House) floor today, which is telling me there are African Americans who have reached the decision that the Clintons know that she can%u2019t win this. But they%u2019re hell-bound to make it impossible for Obama to win%u201D in November, Clyburn told Reuters in an interview.

Obama holds a sizable lead in delegates won in state-nominating contests which could be hard for her to overcome.

The purported theory is that an Obama defeat in November against Republican presidential candidate John McCain would let Clinton make another presidential bid in four years, Clyburn said.

Rowdy:

The "press conference" Obama "held" in Florida was answering a few questions after a Florida fundraiser a day after the DNC ban took effect. He was unaware that his speaking to the press would count as a "press conference," since it was not a scheduled event. When informed, he promised not to repeat his mistake...a promise which he has kept. BTW, in that "press conference" he vowed to work to see that the Florida delegation would be SEATED, but NOT that they would have voting rights.

As for your contention regarding the convention, you''re wrong and you know it. The DNC sanctioned the Michigan and Florida delegations. Their sanction denied those delegations seating at the Denver convention. That means that those delegations have no vote in the nomination process. Florida and Michigan bet that the DNC would reneg on their threatened sanctions. While there is still speculation, to date they''ve lost their gamble.

I''m tired of battling your distortions and lies. Nite all.
